Dear Dr. Wetmore: 
17 January 1946 
I wish to acknowledge receipt of your letter 
of 14 January and to advise you that I have passed this 
information on to General DeFord who is our Senior Air 
Officer in Panama. We are asking him to make such prelimi¬ 
nary arrangements as he considers necessary and to advise 
us of anything further that should be done here. As soon 
as we hear from him, I will let you know. 
) E ' ' s ■ - ' ' ' ;V - . 
It is believed that the minimum of two weeks 
notice that you will give us prior to your desired departure 
date will be adequate to 'take care of the necessary arrange¬ 
ments at this end.
